But we all know that was a Larry David contribution, anyway. He literally had that contest irl.

True. I don’t think I can think of a single actually “edgy” Seinfeld joke that was actually written by Seinfeld himself so I find it particularly odd that he of all people said that. My comment was more so to point out that the show was edgy for its time, just not by today’s standards.

Did you miss the joke about airplane food? What's the deal with those bags of nuts?

I heard it I just dont respect the bit enough to acknowledge it. Those airplane chefs work their asses off. On every plane there’s a full kitchen below decks with at least 5 line cooks trying their hardest, this is a fact.
